Report: Nearly a Dozen Commercial Airliners Missing Ahead of 9/11 Anniversary After Islamists Overrun Libyan Airport

Leading up to the somber anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, there are fresh fears of possible 9/11-style attacks taking place across North Africa as radical Islamist groups in Libya have reportedly seized nearly a dozen commercial airliners in the last month.

While counterterrorism officials are reportedly concerned that the missing jetliners could be used by terrorists to carry out deadly attacks, the timing of the theft is also setting off alarms. The concern is that radical Islamist groups will use the planes to mark the anniversary of the deadly 9/11 attacks, according to alleged intelligence reports disseminated within the U.S. government.

Reports that Islamist militias have seized the jetliners come just weeks before the 13th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.

Obama doesn't care. He just got a par 3 on the 14 hole.

How Obama's arab spring working out for all you sickening pathetic Obama supporters.
When I think of ireton and Mitchell sitting at the demo convention knowing the abomination was being celebrated and smiling like the fools they are, it makes me sick and should make any decent person sick.

God forbid something does happen but if it does, every single democrat in the country is to blame including those on the local level.
I distinctly remember Romney, Palin and other Republicans saying something like this was going to happen and once again as usual the GOP is correct.

Government is relatively powerless against terrorists. Terrorists are crazy zealots. Crazy zealots who take lives need to be put away from the general population. Good luck in rounding them up.

The Saudi Arabian king is warning of attacks by ISIS in both Europe and the US within the next few months. I hope the FBI is taking this seriously. Last time they were given warnings they didn't catch on. Remember the flight instructor who warned about the middle eastern men eager to learn to fly a plane, but not interested in how to land one.

Josh Hastings is an Obama Supporter. Wait!! He can't be. He is telling people he isn't even a Democrat. He is telling people he is an Independent and only filed to run as a Democrat.

How can you not be a Democrat and work hard to get Laura Mitchell and Jim Ireton elected. No can't be, he is an independent because he worked for Jim Mathias' campaign as well as Senator Joan Collins so he can't be a Democrat. But he is still an Obama Supporter.

Lying is the ONLY thing a democrat does proficiently. Passing the buck and making excuses comes in a close second and third.

Not true. When Hussein, Mubarak and Qadafi were in power, they were able to keep the terrorists under control. Something along the lines of arrest them, trial, hang all in the same day. Public hangings too to show others terrorists won't be tolerated. In Egypt a beard and a woman in a headcovering were suspect of being radical islamists and subject to arrest. The Mubarak regime certainly profiled and stereotyped.
Those leaders saw what happened when the islamists gained control in Iran forcing the Shah out and "ruining his good time" (with oil money profits) and didn't want it happening to them.
For more info on the Middle East written pre-911, read Judith Miller's God Has 99 Names.
Obama should have left well enough alone in Egypt and Libya as many in the GOP said. The enemy of my enemy is my friend (w/Mubarak and Qadafi) was the prevailing wisdom of those that really understand the region and culture.

I doubt seriously that a commercial airliner stolen from the Libyan Airport is going to make it all the way to the United States. Ain't going to happen.

Now stolen planes in the US will be a problem. Stand by!

They understand just ONE thing --- power.
So, name one of their cities, perhaps Fallujah. Tell ISIS that if a plane crashes into ANYTHING we own, we will level that city. LEVEL it. Since the other Arab countries can't, or won't, drive ISIS out, add this to the warning.
WE (the USA) will take back AND KEEP every square inch of territory they now claim is theirs. Maybe give it Israel.
We've spilled enough of our children's blood. Let's start spilling a lot of theirs. Whenever they hold one of those gatherings where a bunch of them are waving rifles and chanting "Death to America!!", destroy everything within a mile of that shindig.
THATS how you fight (and end) a war. Not by "understanding". Not by "appeasement". Not by "conciliatory" actions.
You do it by killing the enemy, their friends, their family, and their pets. Destroy their lands, homes, and businesses.
A few drone strikes just gets them angry. Show them what real killing is and do not stop.
No one can do it like the USA.
The world is laughing at our indecision and incompetent performance in the face of these desert goons.
Some extended (several straight weeks) 24-7 bombing runs should stifle a bit of that laughter, but as long as Obama the goof is the (don't laugh) Commander-in-Chief, I suppose we'll be going with "appeasement" and "understanding".
We could really use a Teddy Roosevelt or a Harry Truman, but, instead, we have Ms. Doubtfire.

He did stop by my house knocking on my door one Saturday and I felt uncomfortable with him. He even wanted to put a sign in my yard and I told him no. It's hard to say no, but it was either no or throw the sign away when he left. He is creepy. Who is this guy anyway?
